Try looking in satwa. They have a wonderful selection of single beds at reasonable prices.

Malls in the mornings are usually quiet.. After lunch it gets a bit unpleasant to be there with a baby. I'm sure there's a bunch of baby friendly cafés (I'm probably the wrong person to recommend any, all that comes to mind is costa and carrebou coffee) baby splash also seems like a really fun activity for you and the baby, might be a bit chilly now thou for that. Also check out toptotsuae they have some mother and baby workshops, I haven't tired them thou so I wouldn't be able to give you any feedback.

The poor guy. How annoying for this to happen right at the end of the year before the holidays. I really feel with his situation. I'm actually mad at HSBC for a different sort of thing, they closed my account because it was inactive for a few months, and the account had around 25 dollars in it, I couldn't make a deposit into the account, and they also wouldn't give me my 25 dollars back as the account was "inactive" and thus I couldn't make any withdrawals either.

Butterball is a great brand. Shame they aren't doing any halal birds anymore. I think you can order in geant. I believe it was a French brand. <em>edited by Cowboy on 25/12/2014</em>

The vaccines in the uk are spaced out a little differently, at 2/3/4 months as opposed to being at 2/4/6 months. In the uk they don't take the hepatitis b vaccine but they do take meningitis c vaccine

I have the dlink wifi baby cam, I'm happy with the popup notifications (temp, sound/motion detected), and when my phone is on standby it works just like an audio monitor, however the actual camera takes forever to connect and open. It's not the most reliable option available.

Take your own formula with you, don't rely on the airlines formula. I requested a baby meal when I made my booking, the telephone agent made it sound like a warm bottle of formula. However, on the flight they gave me an unsterilised pigeon brand bottle, without any formula and the air hostess offered me mushy bananas for a 2 month old!!!!

It might be an idea to change the brand of formula, if you are supplementing with formula... Good luck

Don't expect an apology some people simply have no common curtesy and will never apologise. I'm sure the officer would have come to ask you what happened had he been planning to give you a red slip, he just saved you the trouble of standing out in the street.

Try calling dubai herbal and treatment centres pharmacy, they might have it. +971 4 335 1200 It's best to call them first since the place is tricky to find with all the construction going on now

Is he expecting you to put your things in a basket and pay for them separately when you check out?? It seems pointless to make your own trip to the supermarket when you are already there together. He should be paying, not you. If he is having some sort of financial difficulty that would change things a little. But if he has the cash and doesn't want you to buy what you want hes a bit cheap.

Don't meet up with her. That just reinforces her idea that you are close friends. change your number and have your husband change his number too. If he wants to give his new number to her husband that's fine, just so you make it more difficult for her to get your news updates from anyone or even from your social media. (Block her if you must) Avoid meeting up with her for a while and people around you will see on their own that you are not close with her. And hopefully she will find a new friend possibly someone who actually likes her for who she is and she will leave you alone. Confronting her might just make things awkward for the husbands if they are friends.

I quite liked the stokke carrier. However I can only compare it to the mothercare carrier and an unbranded model. <em>edited by Cowboy on 12/12/2014</em>

I find that my saving is seasonal. For example October/November I make savings up to half my income then in December it's all gone. Usually around the holidays and seasonal shopping sprees there are no savings. However I try to save 30% of my income.
